S&P; Slashes Greyhound Debt Rating: Standard & Poor’s Corp. lowered the bus company’s subordinated debt rating to D, the lowest grade possible, after Greyhound Lines Inc. failed to pay bondholders $4.2 million in interest last week. The credit agency said it is still considering lowering the CCC- rating on Greyhound’s senior unsecured debt. About $262 million in debt is affected.
